Even though the GDC had to be canceled this March, the annual GDC Awards were still given. There is also a new date for the event in August.
Untitled Goose Game was also chosen as Game of the Year, which was already cleared at the The Game Awards. Control by Remedy and the indie hit Disco Elysium also made a big impression.
